Xvnc build on Itanium 64 bit Linux

Has anyone successfully built Xvnc on RHAS for the 64 bit Itanium 2
machines?  I tried to build, but I received an error in "imake".  The README
indicates that "playing around" with some parameters may be needed.  I am a
rookie with the Linux builds and my main job is care, feeding and
installation of Oracle.  

The i386 version of vncserver works up to the point of stating any X11
program, then it doesn't work.  I thought I could get the source code (from
realvnc) and try that, but the "make World" errorred out.  This is the last
of the error message.

make[2]: Leaving directory `/grna3/temp/vnc-3.3.7-unixsrc/Xvnc/config/imake'
cd ./config/imake && make -f Makefile.proto all
make[2]: Entering directory

I do not know how to turn off the parms that triggered this error.  Any help
would be greatly appreciated.
